|
Answer» Quote I installed it about 8 hours ago and my computer hasn't blown up. Haven't used it a lot yet, since I do have Firefox, but I would say it's much improved over IE6. As in it WORKS? As in it is secure? Quote Quotemaybe sometimes... and ms doesnt understand that wordFunny how not even 24 hours after release, a research company found a big security hole connected with Outlook Express... The hole allows confidential information to be leaked. Should we be suprised?I installed it about 8 hours ago and my computer hasn't blown up. Haven't used it a lot yet, since I do have Firefox, but I would say it's much improved over IE6. FlameAny security problems with Outlook Express would be unrelated to a IE7. Outlook Express was not included with IE in this latest version of IE. So, after installing IE7, I still have OE6.Quote QuoteOh, it definitely works. Is it secure? Well, it's surely more secure than IE6. I have absolutely no security concerns about using it. But then, I used IE exclusively until about three weeks ago when I installed Firefox, and I had no security concerns about using IE6. With a NAT router, a software firewall, anti-virus, and anti-spyware tools in my arsenal, I had no concerns whatsoever about using IE6, and still would not if I were still using it.I installed it about 8 hours ago and my computer hasn't blown up. Haven't used it a lot yet, since I do have Firefox, but I would say it's much improved over IE6. I've had this on my comp for a week and i have to say i haven't had any problems with it at all in that time. Quote Any security problems with Outlook Express would be unrelated to a IE7.

Redmond (WA) - Microsoft is blaming a recently reported Internet Explorer 7 VULNERABILITY on Outlook Express. Internet Explorer 7 was released a few days ago, but it took less than 24 hours for Secunia, a security research company, to announce a vulnerability. The vulnerability could allow hackers to gain confidential information by redirecting web traffic to other sites. You can read the Secunia's advisory here. According to Secunia, the vulnerability affects fully patched Windows XP systems with Service PACK 2. Christopher Budd from the Microsoft Security Response Center responded to the announcement by blaming the problem on Outlook Express. "The issue concerned in these reports is not in Internet Explorer 7 (or any other version) at all. Rather, it is in a different Windows component, specifically a component in Outlook Express," said Budd. Thomas Kristensen, Secunia's CTO, DISAGREES with Budd and said that the vulnerability is "fully exploitable" through IE7 and adds that IE7 is "the primary attack vector, if not the only attack vector." You can download Internet Explorer 7 from Microsoft's website here. http://www.tgdaily.com/2006/10/20/microsof...outlookexpress/ but do you want to?/ if yo get this message then that might mean it can screw ur computer up??? i just tried to install cuz im reformatting oon anyways but i decided not too.. \ \ plus how could it be outlook it cant browse the net:-? unlovedwarrior, what's the point of your POSTING that image?
